  1. I'm at a loss for how to describe them. Consciousness can dream up a dragon as easily as it can a cat.
  2. It's more like high explosives, which are strictly regulated.
  3. The simple rule is this: Until she sleeps with you, you are allowed to flirt/date other girls. There is no exclusivity until at least after sex. You should keep talking to girls until one of them sleeps with you and wants exclusivity. Until such time you are a free man and you talk and flirt with anyone you want. Do not sit around waiting for a girl, thinking she is your girlfriend. She's not your girlfriend yet. Obviously you do not explicate any of this to her. You just go about your life and don't tell her anything.
  4. Never experienced that in over 200 trips of 5-MeO. But of course something like that is possible. I've seen fucking dragons on 4-AcO-DMT. There's really no limit to what Consciousness can imagine. If your mind goes in the direction of imagining dragons, you will see dragons.
  5. I don't see how Crowder is any different than your average young male conservative. If anything, I think he represents them perfectly in his public and private behavior. It's actually kinda nice that Crowder is an open book.
  6. Sounds more like a myth you invented. In practice people have messy, ugly lives if you bother digging into it. They are child molesters, drug addicts, alcoholics, thieves, cheaters, wife beaters, depressed, suicidal, etc. Anyone can grab a beer on the weekend and have some fun. That says nothing about that quality of their lives. As if a liberal cannot go have a good time at the club or music festival on the weekend. Go look at how Steven Crowder behaves while smoking his cigar on the porch with his wife on the weekend. A care-free guy?
  7. It is not so hard to test out these mushrooms for yourself and determine what's up.
  8. It's not brain damage. You just need some recovery time. Mushrooms can produce a bit of a hang-over effect. Especially after a bad trip you need time to integrate and return back to baseline. Don't freak out. Relax and carry on with life.
  9. Conservatives has always been more reactionary, hateful, closedminded, and fearful. Just look at Jordan Peterson. Does he look like a happy or relaxed person? He's in a full-blown moral panic. As conservatives tend to be. Care-free and conservatives are opposite things. If you were care-free you would not be flipping out over trans issues or "wokeness". How paranoid must one be to be threatened by wokeness? It's funny how wokeness is supposed to be so weak and emasculating, yet at the same time so dangerous and threatening.
  10. ChatGPT is surprisingly intelligent given all the crap found on the internet. It is less biased than most humans.
  11. It's not a small distinction. Conservatives are a good deal more corrupt. Just look at the current Supreme Court situation and the whole MAGA movement. You are never going to get some ideal or perfect party. Politics is all about picking the better of imperfect options, so everything hinges on making proper small distinctions. Although I wouldn't even say that the distinction between Dems and Repubs is small right now.
  12. Just practically, the more good you do the more bad you can get away with. Not saying anyone should be above the law but that's how the world works.
  13. @Kenza Benjelloun I hear what you're saying, but there is another level at which you can really appreciate the intelligence of mathematics and symbolic understanding. So it's not as bleak as you frame it. Symbolic systems and language is really profound stuff once you go post-material, post-rational on it.
  14. I doubt he would have even funded vaccine development. As dumb as Trump is, at least he did that.
  15. Not very. I should investigate him more, but I've heard some bad takes from him which left me with a bad first impression. His rants on Covid are sorta a deal-breaker for me, so I haven't bothered to investigate him deeper. How many hundreds of thousands would have died if this guy was the President during Covid? It's hard to take such a person seriously.
  16. As long as you occupy a finite form your ability to manipulate reality will be limited.
  17. Show me a so-called conscious person who can grow horns on his own head, then let's talk.
  18. You should contemplate the relationship between absolute truth and conceptual truth.
  19. Consciousness does not necessarily confer manipulation over reality.
  20. He may say some good-sounding things, but I doubt he would actually solve any of these issues. It's easy to level progressive critiques but not have the discipline and understanding needed to actually govern effectively. The President is not a dictator job. It requires working with all of Congress and all the insiders and bureaucrats.
  21. I have not been able to develop paranormal abilities that others could see. I don't know what that requires.
